Black toenail is still black, still not managed to try soaking it, might try and find time to give that a go over the weekend.
Marathon build in full flow, on top of the volume build there's some quality coming into the plan as well now, with 8x800m intervals last night, which i really enjoy, struggled to go much faster than 5k pace, just don't seem to have any more speed at the moment!
Heading to over 90k this week which will be my biggest week ever, cycling is having to drop off as a result, and its a strange feeling when an interval set on the turbo feels more like a recovery day!
Weight is ticking down nicely as well with the fear f the marathon keeping me focused on sticking to counting calories and not drinking, not sure if i can keep the no drinking all the way to April 3rd but will give it a go!
seriously doubt the marathon will happen but as its at Dorney lake and its 10 mins down the road I'm fully committed to running a marathon there that day either way, im sick of starting to build towards a race only for covid to throw a spanner in the works and then going back to base training!
